Angelica and I were training in the forest, sometimes I tease her for being a tomboy because when she sits, she mostly forgets that she wore a skirt and her underwear would be visible. I also picked up the habit of calling her names, when I do that, she pouts which looks cute.
After calling her names she also called me Bake. I do hate it, but even though she says it, she doesn't really mean it.
We finished our practice and went to the river to wash away our sweat.
There, I saw her getting refreshed as she splashed the water on her face. This woman beside me covered in sweat was wiping it with a towel. The way she wipes herself looks somewhat erotic that I can't keep my eyes off of her. She glanced at me "Oh crap she saw me looking" I immediately looked away.
"Do you want to borrow my towel?" [Angelica]
"Uhh... no..." [Blake]
Did she think I needed the towel? Doesn't matter though when I get home I'll take a bath.
"You know, I'm fine with you using it." [Angelica]
"No, it's-alright, it's-alright!" [Blake]
"It must be because of my sweat huh..." [Angelica]
After denying her offer. She got depressed... what to do, what-to-do?! Think! Blake! Think!
I snatched her towel and quickly wiped myself with it. As I rubbed my face the smell of her sweat lingered it is somewhat sweet...
"Quit sniffing it." [Angelica]
"Eh??" [Blake]
She read my mind...

We both heard screams coming from the village, Angelica stood up first and so did I.
Then, we ran to the village. Angelica asked on the way if there is a chance that it is a monster attack. I thought no because it is very unlikely for them to be active at this time of day.
When we got to the village, what caught my eye first is the people who wear full-plate armor. Knights... why are they attacking? Are they rouge?
If so... this is dangerous... we saw the town elder get killed right in front of us. I heard Angelica gasp and gave her a worried look "This is bad." is what I thought and then. Angelica suddenly ran out of cover.
"Angelica!" [Blake]
I shouted at her, didn't she hear me? I noticed her running towards their house, so she was worried about her parents...
Well, my folks can take care of themselves, I'll try to help her as much as I can.
We saw a knight. Angelica, dashed using her fastest speed, the knight tried to slash her as they came into contact. She then slid down to evade the attack "That's too risky Angelica..." she made a full turn as she slid bringing the full force of the claymore down on the knight's shield. It broke, but there isn't any follow-up attack?
There Angelica sat on the ground her hands were trembling, she must have hit too hard, if I did that too my hands would also become numb...
The knight broke his right arm from the attack, but he still tried to attack Angelica. I had managed to block it just in time.
"Are you alright Angelica?!" [Blake]
"Yes..." [Angelica]
She seems to be fine.
"Let's attack him both at the same time." [Blake]
At my signal, we both attacked the knight. Mine was on the left while Angelica was on the right because the knight had a broken arm, he just took it like a man and we knocked him out cold.
"Blake! Angelica!"
A villager shouted at us, they needed our help. Angelica looked and smiled at me wryly... she is anxious about her parents.
I don't see any more knights so I nodded, she left the claymore and picked up the cutlass.
There seem to be only a few knights remaining, are we winning?
"Push them back here!!"
I heard somebody shouting, I realized that the voice belonged to Angelica's mother Michelle. I also saw Steven squaring off with four knights.
"Darling! Don't let them cross this line!" [Michelle]
"Yes, honey!" [Steven]
"Die!!" [Knight 1]
"Hah!" [Steven]
"Wah!" [Knight 1]
"It's still too early for you to fight me." [Steven]
"What is with this freak?!" [Knight 2]
He scooped a knight wearing full plate armor like they were some hay... Steven rallied the villagers, their morale is up. While Michelle, seems to be strategizing, at this pace we can win this.
As their numbers thinned out, I went back to get Angelica.
"Help! Help! Someone he..."
Near their house. I heard a scream, it was Angelica's voice...
